IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
So I'm sad. I was able to give my pair a solid 1 month, maybe 1.5 months of wear back in the spring after I got it. We had some good times. Then, summer hits and it was way too hot to wear them. Pop em on today and realize it is a lot tighter in the thighs (almost "painted on"). I've been putting on muscle and am afraid they aren't going to fit soon (good problem). Everything fits perfect at the moment except for thigh area being tight now. So, I need advice from experienced 634s wearers. Will they stretch more/enough? Sell em and get a bigger size (they are 31). If so, jump up to a 32 or all the way to 33? I'll try to get some fit pics up tomorrow so there's a visual reference with this.

That gives me some hope….But, at the same time I figure they will only stretch just enough and stay at the "painted on thighs" level. I also don't want to invest time in a pair of jeans that aren't going to fit at all in 2 months. I figure the less wear the more they're worth (until they're beautifully destroyed). I'm going to have to give this some serious thought. These jeans are my favorite article of clothing I have ever owned.

As I'm ever the advocate of snug fitting jeans, I beg to differ and would recommend giving them more of a try and wear them a lot. Permanently, basically.
IHs are so sturdy I don't think there will be a grave loss of value any time soon, if you should end up selling them. And chances are you will so like that intensified denim feel when wearing them tight that you'll soon reject any idea of a sale with contempt!

Wish that was a few months ago. Oh well.
Guess I'll just have to buy another pair of jeans…what a tragedy.

Hahahah im sorry for my bad english giles, hopefully i can meet you again in Iron Heart Party 2013 in Jakarta, you must bring some free stuff again. See you soon -
Has anyone ever tried to modify the front pockets? I find the opening to be quite a bit smaller than any other pair of jeans I've owned before.
-
I'm no expert, but i expect that making the pocket openings larger is going to be nearly impossible. You're going to have to remove rivets, replace the pocket bags, possibly reposition belt loops and probably a few other equally complicated things. All while not destroying the rest of the jeans by mistake. Sorry, but your best bet is just to use the pockets as little as possible.:)
